<p>I think it's worth applying. You have a reasonable shot at Rice, although it is not a safety or anything.</p>

<p>Let's be real about this.</p>

<p>Your chance of getting in: 34%
Your GPA, SAT, and SATII scores hurt you.</p>

<p>You also don't have enough EC and leadership activities.</p>

<p>The 30 people in the library are laughing at you and your sad life right now. This message board fills my life with joy and eternal bliss at the obsessive compulsive people that plague society like ****roaches plague a sleezy downtown diner.</p>

<p>Oh the joys of life.</p>

<p>hey, are you at rice now?</p>

<p>it's not a bad shoy at all. on a low side, but being from md helps you.</p>

<p>cmhsnerd, the people on collegeconfidential are laughing at you and your sad life right now. Don't you have better things to be doing than just going on this website, actually taking the time to sign up for an account, and using that to make derogatory statements like that? I personally think that's pretty "sad" and pathetic. Obviously, you have no capacity to understand that this website is for people who are compassionate about the college process and their future, unlike you. Clearly you don't belong on here. Not only do your comments reflect that, but they also relect you as an individual quite degradingly.</p>

<p>Tell 'em, collegekid88! My thoughts exactly!

<p>yes i second that</p>

<p>Just one quick note. This account is automatically logged in on all the computers in this library. So while a total moron may give one post, the others come from people that actually want to use this site.</p>

<p>"while a total moron may give one post, the others come from people that actually want to use this site."</p>

<p>so... did that post from the cmhs nerd make any sense at all??</p>

<p>I move that all total morons be tarred and feathered in the streets. And then made to watch reruns of bad 1970's sitcoms</p>

<p>Guys, cmhsnerd was joking. I mean, who drops a number like 34% when estimating chances at admission? It is inconsiderate to post a message like that to a nervous applicant, but this board needs a little shaking up every now and then.</p>
